Its really up to you, there are two places working on the same thing, they are sharing data as far as I know. Revive BF2 had problems with their installer, which is why you no longer have your rank, but this will be resolved in the next release.

Its really up to you which one you want to run, I'll post up details about BF2 HUB when Im home.

bf2hub runs as a background app and automatically starts after you install it so it was probably sitting in your taskbar. It doesn't have a custom .exe/launcher for bf2 either, you just swap to the hub network and then launch the game normally (which is handy if you get the multicore crashes and run the .bat shortcut)

the only other issue is that it doesn't seem to retrieve accounts from the revive network but it allows you to make new accounts or backup your original gamespy accounts through the main bf2 menu

If you use bf2hub the account has to be on the backed up gamespy network and you need the exact password, email and username. And I think the password in the profile.con would need to be encrypted the right way before the bf2hub backup script could read/confirm its correct as well
